2. Easy mark
Landrieu is considered weak and not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

3. Sounds like a question for his co-conspirators.
And I'm not talking about the suspects.

6. Probably had to do with Landrieu submitting candidate name for US Atty
One of the culprits is the son of the acting us atty and landrieu has submitted nominee for replacement.

7. I'd love to see what the whole scheme was supposed to be.
The phone tap thing is just a smell piece of some puzzle to discredit her or her staff.
Makes you wonder what the whole thing was supposed to be.

9. Another thing about this attempted felony
Republicans now think they can do any damn thing they want without repercussions. Else why would they break in (and that's what they did) AND TRY to tap a US Senator's telephone.

But then cheney outed a CIA operative and got away with it. So maybe they guy thought why not.

10. Probably familiarity
like most crimes someone in that group was familiar to her office or something like that

I love that this guy was basically the videographer. AND was so blatant about it that it sounds like it was the first tip to the staff that something was up.

11. I hope this gets a lot of media outrage and the DA/Judge/Jury are forced to
deal a harsh penalty. I'd be happy with the 10 years. Asshole.

I glanced at a headline that said FOUR were arrested. Have to go check it out.
